Item 5.02

Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On January 22, 2018, the sole member of Shell Midstream Partners GP LLC, the general partner (the “General Partner”) of Shell Midstream Partners, L.P. (the “Partnership”), elected Marcel Teunissen as a member of the board of directors of the General Partner (the “Board”) effective February 1, 2018.

Mr. Teunissen will be fully indemnified by the Partnership for actions associated with being a director to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law pursuant to its partnership agreement.

Mr. Teunissen, age 44, has been with Royal Dutch Shell plc (“Shell”) for 21 years in senior finance and commercial positions, in Shell’s Upstream and Downstream businesses, and in its corporate head office. Currently, he is Vice President Finance, Integrated Gas Ventures, based in Houston. In this role, he is responsible for finance management of a global portfolio of upstream gas and LNG assets.

Prior to this role, Mr. Teunissen was Vice President Finance, Heavy Oil, based in Calgary, Canada, where he was responsible for the financial results of the 250kbd oil sands joint venture, which Shell divested in 2017. From 2012-2015, he was Vice President Financial Planning & Appraisal at Shell’s head office in The Hague, Netherlands, supporting the group’s executive committee and Board of Directors on business planning.

In the 10 years before that, Mr. Teunissen was based in Singapore and involved in mergers and acquisitions, as Regional Supply & Trading Finance Manager and Refinery Finance Manager. In the early part of his career, he had the opportunity to gain experience as country Finance Manager for some of Shell’s smaller businesses in the Caribbean and South America.

Mr. Teunissen holds a Master’s degree in Business Economics from Erasmus University in Rotterdam, Netherlands. We believe that Mr. Teunissen’s extensive global experience in financial and commercial management makes him well qualified to serve as a member of the Board.

Mr. Teunissen was not appointed pursuant to any arrangement or understanding with any other person, and there are no transactions with Mr. Teunissen that would be reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
